Cognacs VS Claude Chatelier Page 1 of 1

VS Cognacs (Very Special) belong to the youngest category of cognacs. They contain distillates aged a minimum of two years and are sometimes marked with three stars. Thanks to their shorter aging, they retain freshness and a straightforward flavor that is typical for this class.

Taste and Use

VS Cognacs are often smooth, with pronounced fruity and spicy notes. Compared to more mature categories, they have a more energetic character, making them a popular choice for mixing cocktails or serving over ice. For many, this is the first step into the world of cognacs, where they can compare younger flavors with richer and older blends.

Next Steps in the World of Cognac
